Uncle Kracker Arrested for Sex Offense

Uncle Kracker allegedly made R. Kelly proud early this morning.

The former Kid Rock DJ, and former platinum selling artist, was arrested and booked with a second-degree forcible sex offense outside Raleigh, North Carolina, TMZ reports.

The man whose real name is Matthew Shafer was busted by Raleigh police who responded to a call at an Embassy Suites hotel around 4:45 AM.

It's the sort of crime that makes Jason Wahler a goody goody by comparison.

Kracker, who had a huge hit with the song "Follow Me" in 2000, is currently being held in Wake County Jail on $5 million bond. He's scheduled to face a judge later today.
